lyrics

Homeward Bound

Every time i go
I see the rain flow from your eyes
I call out to the gods
To light up your sky
I take my old guitar
And i ride oh how i ride
Down through these valleys green
To the city of a million lights

And every time i go you look like heaven
And when I'm leaving i feel like the devil is inside of me

Now, now, now, now, now

Through the night, faster than light
More than the speed of sound
You're my fire, my one desire
You are my solid ground
And all i wanna be, all i wanna be
All i wanna be is Homeward Bound

I take the dusty highway
They call the cinder road
To play my guitar through the night
Til the stage curtains close
Rage the howling wind
Here comes another storm
I drive home by the road cafes
To reach you by dawn

And every time i go you look like heaven
And when I'm leaving i feel like the devil is inside of me

Now, now, now, now, now

Through the night, faster than light
More than the speed of sound
You're my fire, my one desire
You are my solid ground
And all i wanna be, all i wanna be is
All i wanna be is Homeward Bound

Through the night, faster than light
More than the speed of sound
You're my fire, my one desire
You are my solid ground
Got my radio on, i venture on
When the lights go down
Driving north, beneath storm clouds
Through these strange, strange towns
And all i wanna be, all i wanna be
All i wanna be is Homeward Bound

Words & Music: Stevenson (1986)

The Last Song

I'm looking through windows
And sleeping on pillows
That hide your face ~ from me
You're casting a shadow
I'm drowning in sorrow
You've left no trace ~ for me to see

But it's too late now
What am i gonna do?
But it's too late now
Just what have you, what have you put me through?
It's been so long
Since i played this song . . . . .
For you

Your face in slow motion
Is cast in my ocean
I dive beneath ~ the velvet blue
You're just an illusion
Reality i'm losing
I close my eyes ~ and dream of you

But it's too late now
What am i gonna do?
But it's too late now
Just what have you, what have you put me through?
It's been so long
Since i played this song . . . . .

But it's too late now
What am i gonna do?
But it's too late now
Just what have you, what have you put me through?
It's been so long
Since i played this song . . . . .
For you

Lyrics: Stevenson (Mar. 1983/Aug. 1986)
